Chapter 157 Zhao Tan's Thoughts
Lin Xi nodded, "You go back first, I'll send someone over as soon as we get out of here."
Hong Sheng smiled and said, "Okay, okay."
Wang Jing immediately became interested, "Sister-in-law, what is this agent?"
In order to thoroughly understand the so-called agency system, Wang Jing kept following Lin Xi and asking him questions.
Lin Xi had no choice but to briefly explain to him the so-called agency system as Wang Jing kept pestering her. Wang Jing's eyes lit up after listening.
Finally, Xiao Yongyan couldn't stand it anymore and pulled Wang Jing aside angrily, "How much more do you want to say?"
Wang Jing winked at Xiao Yongyan, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy? I didn't do anything. Can't I even talk now?"
Because of this incident, the two began to quarrel with each other again.
Lin Xi rarely saw Xiao Yongyan's childish side and found it very interesting.
"It's getting late. I'll go prepare dinner." Xiao Yongyan said to Lin Xi.
Unexpectedly, these words caused Wang Jing to be surprised again, "What? You can actually cook, Xiao Yongyan, what on earth can't you do now?"
Finally, Wang Jing sighed in his heart, who could have thought that the most noble young man in the capital would now cook for his own wife.
Xiao Yongyan glanced at Wang Jing and said nothing.
At dinner time.
Wang Jing looked at the pots of green vegetables on the table, and his face almost turned green.
"Xiao Yongyan, it's a rare opportunity for me to be your guest, and you treat me with this?" Wang Jing pointed at the plates of vegetables on the table and said unhappily.
"It's good enough to have something to eat, why are you so picky?" Xiao Yongyan said unhappily.
Wang Jing looked at the bowl of green vegetables he had never seen before. He picked up one with chopsticks and tasted it symbolically. The next moment, his whole face wrinkled, "What is this that is so bitter!"
Xiao Yongyan had no expression on his face. "These are what we exiled people usually eat. If you are not used to it, go back to your capital as soon as possible."
Wang Jing swallowed the dish with difficulty, and then said, "I have my own money, why should I eat and drink here, sister-in-law, Xiao Yongyan cooks these for you every day?"
Lin Xi was laughing at the side, but didn't say anything. Xiao Yongyan was clearly targeting Wang Jing, and Wang Jing probably knew it himself. He just didn't spare her with his words.
The meal was finished in an extremely joyful atmosphere.
At night, Wang Jing returned to the inn to rest, while the couple stayed in the shop.
"Do you think Wang Jing came here just to find his sister?" Lin Xi asked in the dark.
Xiao Yongyan shook his head. "You know what he wants to do, and so do I. I guess the situation in the capital has changed drastically, which is why he is so worried."
Lin Xi looked at Xiao Yongyan in surprise, "I thought you didn't know."
Xiao Yongyan smiled and said, "How could that be? Am I such an unreliable person in your heart?"
"Of course it's true. You and Wang Jing are bickering like two little brats." Lin Xi said with a grin.
Xiao Yongyan was helpless, "He is just like that. I am different from him."
"What's the difference? I see you're enjoying it too." Lin Xi said deliberately.
Lin Xi's words made Xiao Yongyan distracted. The look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Xi became more and more profound, but Lin Xi himself was unaware of it.
"I think Wang Jing is a man of loyalty and friendship. I guess you two had a good relationship in the past." Lin Xi continued.
Xiao Yongyan has lived for so many years, and he has never felt that the word Wang Jing is so harsh. "Madam, don't mention irrelevant people at this moment."
Lin Xi's head was full of questions, as she was discussing serious matters with Xiao Yongyan.
Just as she was puzzled, Xiao Yongyan's hand climbed up her body, and she finally understood what Xiao Yongyan meant just now.
Men, it turns out, are animals who think with their lower body, no matter how powerful they are!
Lin Xi thought angrily.
…
Wang Jing was arranged by Lin Xi to supervise the work and went to Taoli Village as soon as possible.
A stranger suddenly came to the village, and everyone was surprised. When they saw the man going straight to Lin Xi's territory, the villagers realized that he was probably here to work again.
Zhao Tan stood not far away, his eyes deep. This Lin Xi was really getting more and more outrageous. He brought strange people into the village every other day, and he didn't even tell him, the head of the village. It was obvious that he didn't take him seriously.
Zhao Pingwei stood behind his father and whispered, "Dad, do you know what news I just got?"
"Just say what you want to say." Zhao Tan said unhappily.
Zhao Pingwei pulled his father back home, and when no one was around, he whispered something in Zhao Tan's ear.
After hearing what Zhao Pingwei said, Zhao Tan's face changed drastically, "Is this true?"
Zhao Pingwei patted his chest and assured, "It's absolutely true! Dad, I spent a tael of silver to treat the official to a meal and got this information from him. This Lin Xi is incredible. Even the county magistrate can't control her. Who knows what will happen in the future!"
Zhao Tan knew that what his son said made sense, and he was also very worried.
"Dad, you have to think of a solution. If things continue like this, our Taoli Village might become Linjia Village." Zhao Pingwei said.
"Whatever you ask me to do, I can't just drive them out of the village," Zhao Tan said angrily.
"Dad, why not? You say, Lin Xi treated the county master like that, shouldn't he hate him? It's just that he can't find a sufficient reason to dare to do anything." Zhao Pingwei said.
Zhao Tan squinted at his son, half believing and half doubting, "The county magistrate can't do anything to Lin Xi, do you have a solution?"
Zhao Pingwei said, "I have it, Dad."
…
Although Lin Xi lived in the town during this period, he would come back every day to visit.
The silkworm house is now running as planned. Lin Xi plans to wait until Cui Hongyue and the other person have mastered the skills, and then recruit some more people to expand the team. Anyway, there are many women in the village who are willing to do the job.
As for Zhang Chengye, the paper mill has already taken shape, and Zhao Chengye's research on silk rice paper has made great progress. He is now concentrating on thinking about how to further improve the quality.
The Ma family’s pig farm is already very mature. Many people in the village have joined the ranks of pig farming and are also learning scientific feeding techniques.
It has to be said that everyone in Taoli Village, young and old, is striving for a better life.
Originally, people from the surrounding villages were not very willing to marry their daughters here, but now the people working with Lin Xigan have a good income, and some families have gradually changed their views on Taoli Village.
Of course, Lin Xi didn’t think that this was all her credit. She could only point the way but couldn’t walk for others.
Wang Jing was supervising the construction of the Xiao family's new house. When he saw Lin Xi coming over, he sighed, "Sister-in-law, you really know how to enjoy life. You even considered a bathing pool in the house you built. I think your small courtyard in the capital can't compare to this."
Lin Xi was quite proud of his design. "Of course. We won't have the chance to return to Beijing in this lifetime, so we have to live in a better place."
